Where the Mountains Breathe is a sweeping collection of poems spanning more than five decades of TaeHun Yoon’s life-from war‑torn childhood in Korea to immigrant years in America, from the mountains of Seoul to the quiet ridges of Tennessee. Across continents, seasons, losses, and renewals, these poems form a spiritual autobiography told in breath, silence, and light.With lyrical stillness and emotional clarity, Yoon writes of han-the deep Korean ache of unresolved sorrow-and of grace that rises quietly from wounds. His voice moves between the visible and the unseen, between the landscapes of memory and the inner terrain of faith, offering readers a contemplative space to recognize their own longing, grief, hope, and awakening.Whether reflecting on immigrant displacement, the tenderness of aging, the mysteries of prayer, or the transforming power of love, Yoon’s poems bear the weight and beauty of a life lived attentively. Each piece is a doorway into the sacred ordinary: a bird’s brief pause, a winter storm gathering, a child’s first cry, an aging parent’s final breath, or the mountains that breathe through every life passage.Where the Mountains Breathe invites readers into a place where silence speaks, where the earth remembers, and where the thin places of the world-mountain ridges, moments of loss, unexpected light-reveal the eternal within the everyday.A book for spiritual seekers, lovers of poetry, students of Korean culture, immigrants, pastors, mystics, and anyone who has walked through pain and come out listening more deeply.

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
